Autism

Autism in its many forms, has been and will continue to be an evolving medical story with new and more detailed understanding of the underlying mechanism becoming known over time. What we currently know is that the kids seem to be a chemical experiment gone awry. From the dysfuctional GI tract to the enzyme inhibitions, I perceive these children as the canaries of our culture. In the past 18 years of practice I have seen the often mislabled disorders of various neurological diseases, environmental sensitivities, chronic fatigue immune dysfunction syndrome, and fibromyalgia become a blur of similarities of known chemical disruption coupled with often time self induced poisoning ranging from dietary indiscretion to heavy metal exposures from questionable hygenic practices to overt poisoning with immunization.
What makes our medical system run amok with the notion that challenging newborns with infective agents will duplicate natures approach or result in consistent immune responses ? Are we becoming so afraid of "the bugs" that we intentionally expose those at low risk to high risk potentials ? What happened to the concept of transfered immunity first, via breast feeding ?

In the next number of months, I will be participating with a number of professionals to bring you a more unified approach to both the diagnosis, treatment and access to resources. Although it must appear as an overwhelming blur to those new to the spectrum of this disorder, you can understand the immunology, physiology, and the conceptual framework with which YOU can make intelligent decisions for your child's care.

At the Center of Health™ we strive to make your medical experience one of working as a team member exploring your child's disorder. Complexities of the medical system are understandable. My approach is to start at the beginning of the process, ingestion and digestion. Without the proper fuel and the ability to deliver it to the cells, all else is doomed. Evaluation of the gut can be accomplished via a number of approaches. We can evaluate the input using a diet diary and the output products via both stool, urine and blood, along with a good history and physical.

Having been contacted by a number of parents to start the process toward this work. I will be updating and providing additional information as soon as possible.

As a note of interest you might find it very informative to check out the current list of immunizations that contain mercury and the rap from the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention regarding their "safety".

A partial listing of manufacturers of Gluten and Dairy free foods and access to the federal reporting system of adverse immunization effects is available at Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, sponsored by the US government.

A jab against those who choose to not immunize their children, was effectively portrayed on the ER program (2/15/01). The parent appeared as a lame uninformed and misguided individual. For those interested in some hard data you might want to read an article appearing in a recent JAMA, (12/27/00) Individual and Community Risks of Measles and Pertussis Associated With Personal Exemptions to Immunization. Might be dry reading, but the message is clear that the risks can be calculated.

My attitude regarding the use of immunization remains VERY guarded. We do carry in office both the tetanus and diphtheria, separately and together. I feel strongly that the proverbial jury is out, when it comes to determining the real implications of injecting foreign substances, with preservatives and carrier substances. One of the apparent issues that appears clearer as the statistics continue to arrive, is the use of multiple immunizations administered at the same time, resulting in more significant side effects. Clearly the approach of waiting for the immune system to mature and then, if appropriate administering individual non-preserved vaccine/s would be a prudent course of action for most individuals.

Now not unexpectedly, the first mercury poisoning from a vaccine case has been filed.

The law firm of Waters & Kraus, LLP has filed the first known civil case alleging that the mercury-based preservative thimerosal, used recently in more than 30 childhood vaccines, has caused mercury poisoning in many children. Counter, et al v. Abbott Laboratories, et al, (Cause No. GN 100866, 200th District Court - Travis County, Texas). The symptoms of mercury poisoning are, in many cases, identical to the symptoms of autism... Children have been exposed to cumulative levels of mercury from the vaccines that exceed threshold safety levels that have been established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency. Waters & Kraus anticipates that a significant number of individual cases against the vaccine industry will be filed in the near future.

Consider this : Ojai, CA -- On January 29, 2001, Jock Doubleday offered $20,000 to the first U.S.-licensed medical doctor or pharmaceutical company CEO to publicly drink a mixture of standard vaccine additive ingredients: for more information.Vaccination Liberation - Information site.

During the time the original Press Release was offered, only 14 inquires from doctors were received and no one accepted the challenge. On August 1, 2006, the offer was increased to $75,000 and is posted at http://www.spontaneouscreation.org/SC/$75,000VaccineOffer.htm As of June 1, 2007 the offer increased to $80,000 and will climb $5,000 per month.

The mixture will include, but will not be limited to, the following ingredients: thimerosal (a mercury derivative), ethylene glycol (antifreeze), phenol (a disinfectant dye), benzethonium chloride (a disinfectant), formaldehyde (a preservative and disinfectant), and aluminum.

Doctors note:
Many of the current vaccines contain a number of these ingredients......gives one pause when considering options. Interesting it's expected that the current crop of vaccinations will continue to rise. Consider the assault on the immune system of youngsters and the cumulative amount of toxic metals injected into their bodies.

Many other pages of information, along with other resources, will be available shortly. Please accept this as a work in progress.....Dr. K
